Volunteers Needed to Help Plant Trees at Barnsley

Thanks to Susan Eisendrath and Margie Marple, Barnsley Elementary
School is going to receive 5 trees (2 River Birch and 3 Bald Cyprus)
to support our School Eco Response Team (SERT)/Green Schools program.
They were able to get these trees through the "Trees for Schools"
project which is a partnership between the Montgomery County Sierra
Club and the TREEMENDOUS Maryland Program. Through this project, the
school will also provide educational messages on the benefits of
trees.

They have arranged with Ms. Alban to plant the trees on Sunday,
November 23 at 1:00 in front of the school. We need a few good diggers
(about 6 adults) who would be willing to help plant these trees.
Please contact Susan Eisendrath at susan.eisendrath@gmail.com or
phone: 301-460-3907 by Friday if you can help.
